From Michigan Live:
The Hudsonville Library Board has adopted a schedule of user fees to be imposed on patrons who live outside the city limits.
Commissioner Arlen Dykema, who serves on the Library Board, told the City Commission last week the Library Board expects to begin a system of user fees by July 1 \”to give us time to look it over and adjust it a little bit.\”
The board began investigating user fees last fall when Library Director Melissa Huisman noted that nearly half the library\’s circulation was to non-residents, primarily Georgetown Township residents. While Hudsonville residents pay $1 million for library operations, no funds are received from neighboring municipalities whose residents use the library.
